Dementia
has skyrocketed to become the fifth biggest cause of death worldwide,
Alzheimer’s constitutes about 70 per cent of these cases. Alzheimer's results
in progressive loss of memory and cognitive function and is devastating both to
those who have it and to their loved ones.
Researchers have now succeeded in neutralizing
the two proteins believed to be the primary factor in Alzheimer's disease. If
this drug is administered before 40, and taken for life, it could potentially
prevent the disease in 50 to 80% of at-risk adults.
This vaccine could be a game-changer!
